Was checking out the current issue of Knitty and found the following article about a stretchy bindoff that snaps back into shape. This is a big deal for me because I don’t like it when the top of my socks look all stretched out before I’ve even worn them. I think I will try this on the pair of socks I am currently knitting. Check it out and let me know what you think: http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEss11/FEATinterlock.php

Radiate on Knitting.com
Using the wonderful feeling Italian Ice, Radiate creatively uses a combination of knits and purls to create vertical lines pleasing to the eye and directing the attention to the neckline. This design would look good over a t-shirt or tanktop for summer wear with some nice linen pants (can you tell I want to go shopping??).  And, Helene did a great job sizing the pattern to 3X!!   Italian Ice is a beautiful yarn:
- Fiber Content: 61% cotton/26% linen/13% viscose
- Put-Up: 50-gr ball
- Yardage: 76 yards
- Texture: ribbon wrapped with viscose highlights
- Sts per 4″: 16 sts
- Needles: US size 9 5.(5mm)
